Vol. 262 No. 5

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - County Kerry Net Fishing.

63.

asked the Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries if he is aware of allegations of illegal drift net fishing in Kenmare Bay; and, if so, what action he proposes to take in the matter.

I am aware of such allegations. The Kerry Board of Fishery Conservators is the body responsible for the protection of the fisheries in the area and the chairman, who wrote to me has been asked for the board's recommendations on ways and means to enforce the restriction on salmon drift netting.
